THE PRINTS

Published before the session.
Scored after it.

RECORD OPENED AUG 2, 2026 · EVERY SESSION SINCE · NOTHING REMOVED · FIRST TALLY AT 20 SCORED

Every trading night the dealing range closes at 22:03 ET and the terminal prints its numbers on the first pass after the close — typically within ten minutes, and every row carries its exact publication timestamp — the range, equilibrium, the bias equilibrium sets, the OTE pocket and the objective. Those numbers are timestamped and pushed to member desks before the session they measure.

This page is what happened next. Each session is scored one way only: did the objective print before the range was invalidated? The answer is recorded whether it flatters us or not, and no session is ever removed.

READ THIS BEFORE THE TABLE. A HIT RATE WITHOUT ITS BASELINE IS MARKETING, NOT MATH. WHEN THE RANGE PRINTS, PRICE IS ALREADY SOMEWHERE INSIDE IT — SO A COIN-FLIP WALK REACHES THE FAR END FIRST A CERTAIN PERCENTAGE OF THE TIME BY GEOMETRY ALONE. THAT BASELINE IS COMPUTED PER SESSION AND PRINTED BESIDE THE RESULT. ONLY THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THEM MEANS ANYTHING — AND IT IS ALLOWED TO BE NEGATIVE HERE.

How a session is scored

OBJECTIVE — price reached the far end of the dealing range before the range was invalidated. INVALIDATED — the opposite extreme broke first. NEITHER — the session closed between the two. OPEN — the window has not closed yet. A bar that touches both ends is recorded as BOTH and counted as neither, because the tape cannot tell us which came first. UNSCORED — the session cannot be honestly scored, and the row says which of two reasons applies: no tape reached us for the window, or the front-month contract rolled underneath it (the continuous feed steps by the calendar basis at expiry, which is not price). Either way it stays on the record and out of every total.

The pocket event — where an edge can actually show

The raw objective score above carries baselines of 60–95%: when the range closes, price already sits near one end, so a coin-flip walk gets there most nights and the number proves little either way — our own standard says so. The method's real path is stricter: price pulls back into the OTE pocket first, then makes the far end. From the pocket's near edge a random walk reaches the objective before the invalidation only ≈38% of the time. Since AUG 14, 2026 every session records whether the pocket filled and what happened after — an event where beating the baseline would mean something, and failing it would show in public. A fill on the same bar as the outcome is not counted: the tape cannot prove which came first, so we don't claim it.

The watch window runs from the moment of publication to the CME close at 17:00 ET the following day. Levels come from NQ front-month bars on a publicly delayed feed — its source, delay and state are published on the Data Receipts board, open to anyone.

Could we rewrite a bad night?

Not without you being able to catch it. Every time this record changes, the server commits a SHA-256 of the entire record to a hash chain — each link carrying the hash of the one before it. Alter any past session and every later hash breaks. And since Aug 14, 2026 every commitment is anchored into Bitcoin via OpenTimestamps — a timestamp nobody, including us, can backdate. The proof files are on the audit page.

What Penthaus is

A private futures & options terminal — the nightly levels above, pushed before the session, plus the live wire, dealer gamma, the vol complex and prop-account rails. The record on this page is the part we publish in the open. A seat starts with a $49 seven-day trial (credited to your first invoice); full seats run from $249/mo and are approved, not bought.

What this page is not

It is not a signal service and not a track record of trades. Penthaus takes no positions and publishes no entries, exits or returns. A level being reached is not a profit; position size, timing, slippage and costs belong to the trader, and most of the outcome lives there. Nothing here is advice, and nothing here is a promise — see risk.
